Liqui-Cel® Membrane Contactors have been used for 15+ years for degassing liquids. O2 removal to 1ppb and CO2 removal to 1ppm in the semiconductor, power, pharmaceutical, medical/analytical, beverage and other industries are common applications. O2, for example, is corrosive and negatively impacts many processes. CO2 negatively impacts performance of EDI and Ion Exchange. The contactors tolerate high pressures/temperatures and they process flow rates from < 10 ml/min to hundreds of M3/hr.
They are used extensively in boiler feedwater degassing to prevent boiler corrosion without chemical addition. They also have a positive impact on yields in high-purity degassing applications. The liqui-cel website provides information on all membrane products and there is an animated tour that shows the visitor the insides of the contactor and how the contactors work. More
